NELSPRUIT \u2013<\/em>\u00a0\u2019n Sterk tweede helfte het Vrydagaand (22 Augustus) aan die Sanlam Boland Kavaliers \u2019n indrukwekkende 29\u201326 oorwinning oor die Pumas besorg in die Mbombela-stadion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Met di\u00e9 oorwinning het Boland tot 21 ligapunte gestyg en is hulle die eerste span wat hul plek in die uitspeelronde van die Curriebeker Premiersafdeling bespreek \u2013 met nog twee ligawedstryde oor. Hierdie oorwinning is \u2019n belangrike hupstoot vir die Kavaliers se veldtog, en wys hul vasberadenheid en vermo\u00eb om onder druk te presteer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Kavaliers het rustyd met 3\u201321 agtergeloop in \u2019n opwindende wedstryd vol wipplankaksie, maar het in die tweede helfte hul ritme gevind en \u2019n merkwaardige terugkeer gemaak om die tuisspan met drie punte te troef. Ondanks \u2019n rampspoedige eerste helfte, het Boland \u2019n merkwaardige terugkeer gemaak om die Pumas met \u2019n bonuspunt-oorwinning te troef in \u2019n spannende wedstryd die afgelope naweek. Die Pumas het die eerste helfte oorheers nadat geelkaarte aan Khwezi Mafu en James Tedder hulle in staat gestel het om drie verdoelde drie\u00eb aan te teken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoewel Tedder vroe\u00ebr \u2019n strafskop vir Boland oorgesit het, was dit nie genoeg om die besoekers se 21\u20133 rustydvoorsprong te stuit nie. Kragspel deur die Pumas se voorspelers het Boland op die agtervoet gedwing, terwyl die vroe\u00eb besering van Ashlon Davids, wat vervang is deur Juan Mostert, die tuisspan verder geknou het. Kort n\u00e1 rustyd het die Pumas hul bonuspunt-drie gedruk met \u2019n rolmaalbeweging, maar daarna het Boland stadig begin terugveg. \u2019n Gevaarlike agterlynbeweging het gesorg dat Marcqwien Titus sy span se eerste drie druk. Daarna het Boland se momentum gegroei. Xavier Mitchell het n\u00e1 volgehoue druk oor die doellyn gegaan en Tedder het weer die verdoeling oorgeskop. Met slegs 14 minute oor het Dayan van der Westhuizen sy span se derde drie gedruk, ook verdoel deur Tedder, wat die telling tot 22\u201326 verminder het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die laaste woord het aan Boland behoort, toe hulle \u2019n strafdrie toegeken is n\u00e1 voortdurende druk op die Pumas se doellyn. Die drie het nie net die wedstryd beklink nie, maar ook vir Boland \u2019n bonuspunt verseker. N\u00e1 afloop van die wedstryd het Boland se kaptein, Thurlow Marsh, ges\u00ea die Pumas is \u2019n fisieke span en dat hulle besluit het om hulle teenstanders by die afbreekpunte aan te vat. \u201cToe ons 22\u201326 agter was, het van die spanleiers bymekaargekom en besluit: daar is geen manier dat ons hierdie wedstryd gaan verloor nie,\u201d het Marsh ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
